We went with a Lopi Flushwood heater but it is not a open fire and is designed for heating around 300sqm of living space. http://www.lopi.com.au/wood/flush-hybrid.html I would suggest giving a few places a call and see what they can recommend, always best to go with advise from people who sell / install them. Thanks for your reply Fleb. I've emailed a bunch of dealers and most of them want to sell me the jetmaster universal one: http://www.jetmaster.com.au/component/v ... gory_id=10 but to me it looks like it has a fireback and convection chambers designed for maximum heat output which isn't what I'm after. One thing I haven't been able to understand is with the zero clearance fireplaces how does the chimney work?
